Was supposed to be today but wind is too strong so it’s a blow out!

This is why it’s important to make sure we are checking for silent health issues. Especially as we all continue to enjoy endurance sports as we age.

"I shouldn't be here, but I am!"- Cardiac arrest survivor conquers Loch Ness

Nick Parkes may have been the one doing the swimming, but it takes a small army behind the swimmer to make it happen. All powered by Romney's Kendal Mint Cake 😂

A massive congratulations to Rory Kaye, an impressive 16 year old who swam the North Channel yesterday to become the youngest Englishman to do so.

Rory swam the English Channel last year and has a few more swims planned this season, so I wish him all the best with those!

He is raising money for Mencap so please consider donating.

Lovely swim today with my medical sister Mermedic in Ullswater, where we took our new Wildpool shoes out for a spin. We also cooked up an idea for an ice swimming research study because we’re nerds 🤓 who get very excited and interested by these things 😂

Got to spend some time with Nick Parkes and Mags on Sunday at the Swim England masters open water nationals.

Nick is attempting to be the first cardiac arrest survivor to swim Loch Ness. It’s a privilege to have been asked to support him medically, with his preparation and on the day to make sure he’s safe and we’ve minimised the risks.

He’s raising money for Yorkshire Air Ambulance and Sudden Cardiac Arrest UK

Congratulations to Alison Hadfield who completed Jersey 🇯🇪 to France 🇫🇷 this week!

I’m so pleased the weather finally allowed her to set off, having been disappointed twice last year. It’s so difficult to train for a swim, be ready and then for the elements to let you down. Another part of long distance open water swimming that is not in our control.

What’s next Alison Hadfield?

MASSIVE shout out to WildJemma who set off yesterday to swim from the Isle of Man to England. A swim that no one has ever done before.

She was making incredible progress, then got stung by the Lionsmane jellyfish far too many times. Her body reacted and it wasn’t safe medically for her to continue. As the open water swimming community knows, there are too many aspects of these swims outside of our control.

We are all absolutely gutted for you. As you’ve said yourself, “somewhere will be somebody inspired to try, because of me” and that’s why I’m sharing your story.

She who tries dares
